Upgraded my phone, still have full upgrade!! - HTC EVO 3D

So when I upgraded to my 3Devo ok launch day I got my full $150 off, and I noticed the next day my account still said eligible for $150 off new phone. Figured it was just playing catch up, but today I looked and its still there! I guess come september I will be dual wielding my 3vo and my GS2

Don't fret on it, it will disappear. If it doesnt than good for you

Get a Nexus Prime or a Newer Tablet. Pointless to get a GS2.
If you're going to milk the double dip, go big.

+1. You should use your upgrade on a phone that isn't slight better (or worse) than the EVO 3D. I know I would wait for the prime or possibly the quadcore phones of next year , if that's the way android is going lol. But you can do whatever you want with your upgrade.

I got a nexus s 4G again, but I gave to my wife, I had for like a month lol here is my old topic

You do know if your getting a new line you will get that discount anyway as a new 2 year agreement will be signed.

I was a brand new customer in Feb. I got the white og evo. First time I logged in it told me I was upgrade eligible.
I figured they would catch it but they never did. When the 3d came out I figured id better snatch it up just in case they did eventually figure it out.
I wanted to try to hold off for the nexus prime, but figured I better jump on the 3d rather than possibly nothing. Then I sold my og on Ebay for 235 since it was rooted. Took my extra cash and got an otter box.
The guy @ my sprint store said he sees people who got lucky like that more often than you'd think.

Thats a striking contradiction. You wanted to be rid of your Epic, but you are gonna get an Epic 2?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
Why buy a used one? With all the discounts and offers available at Sprint, just about anyone can get one for $50... many times FREE. Are you concerned about the contract?
Mike
Wellllll, first order of business, not a troll thread. I am genuinely interested. Secondly, I can't get any other offers because I only qualify for the $75 off credit on Sep 1st. I also have the Epic, it is breaking and so instead of paying the cash for insurance I would rather put it towards the 3d, which I want... I will look on craigslist and elsewhere. I just would rather buy from xda member because I feel like I could trust that the phone was taken care of. Thanks for all the replies.
There are 3 for sale in the market I believe
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA Premium App
Do what I did. Add a new line, trade in your epic and get the 3d at the discount price minus the trade in. Then put the new line on seasonal hold. They kinda of goofed mine up and I think took the new line off ha-ha.
I got a 3d for 50 bucks and I'll be paying like 100 or 150 to have the line taken off if it does show up on my act.
Radio shack was offering a trade in, was to be 100 dollars but hey gave me 165 for ny EVO shift.

Epic 2???? Let me put it a different way. Wanted to be rid of the extra bulk of the physical keyboard which I never use and to have a slightly larger screen. Also something a bit faster. After getting the 3d, I actually love it, but I still may use the upgrade for the gs2.

Working with, repairing and selling both phones I see it as a wash. If someone is looking for a "in your hand" media phone, I push the Epic. It has an attractive screen and media optimizations that the MoPho doesn't have. If someone is looking for "and the kitchen sink" phone, I push the MoPho. It's screen and media playback falls short of the Epic but has amazing expansion capabilities. Granted I avoid iPhones like the plague (sheeple products annoy me) but if the customer can barely understand their hero/moment then I point them towards an iPhone. If I didn't need the MoPho's feature set I would have gone with the Epic.
(Please note that the 3D abomination is not in the above paragraph. That's one POS I will not sell to anybody. Almost every 3D that comes in for service ends up getting replaced.)
I ended up going through 4 evo 3D's before switching to photon. That phone is a POS. HTC really let me down man and I got that sucker on launch day. After the Evo 3D I used a Nexus s for a month which was another plastic POS by Samsung (also garbage). Photon was my first moto android device and they won me over...for now. That said, I agree with the guy above me 100%.

Just random issues Samsung phones usually have. At home I can get a solid 9mb on 4G consistently and her ET maxes out at 4/5mb tops right next to mine. Signal isn't all that great in our home (same problem I had with the nexus s). Phone feels very cheap as compared to the photon or 3D. She likes it but then again she likes whatever phone you put in her hand. I'd say she's not the most tech savvy person out there so she wouldn't know what works etc. I know though...the small issues drive me nuts lol. Maybe I'm just spoiled by the excellent radio moto has in this thing now! Sammy's are known for weak radios just ask the original iPhone 4 owners

if having a phone that lags on its own OS, has a screen that looks like bees painted it with there asses, has very little dev support, no plans of getting ics ota update, and has a return rate of 45% (at my store)... I don't know how u would even think about calling this phone an upgrade over the galaxy s ii.
The only thing holding this phone off from being 100% crap is its radio, GSM card slot, and it being sold in stores (best buy, target, and Walmart) for only $50 to $100 bucks.

You mad bro? Lol
Motorola hasnt denied any of its latest phones only stated which ones are getting it first for sure. They made this very clear with an official statement. I believe this phone will see ICS q1 2012 same with the epic touch (which is a plastic PIECE OF **** with a nice screen). That's all Samsung phones have going is the screen. And dev support? Who says we don't have any? We have enough dev support; let me guess, you're one of those people who thinks a new rom is when someone takes a base, removes a few apps and adds a theme? (i.e the evo 4G/3D forums). This phone has webtop, kernel devs and a dedicated cm7 dev and others chip in. What else do you need?
Epic touch is a joke with a shiny screen, I can say that because I have one right next to me. Get real kid..

I personally believe its out of stock because they had it free for the week before it was sold out and alot of people bought it.
I called T-Mobile since they lowered the price and I was still in buyers remorse, and they said that it is re ordered and more will become available. Just waiting for shipments to come in.
Amaze is phased out.youll still find one.
However...
After the sense 3.6/ics uodate,there wont be anymore updates for it.no sense 4.0 except from xda.
But,Tmobile wont do anything more than the next release of 3.6

I got a free amaze two weeks but was having issues with the phone, luckily i was in the 14 days buyers remorse period so they tried to send me another Brand new Amaze but was out of stock. And I really wanted another one so they offer me a free upgrade to the One S. After using the One S for a few hours, I have to admit the Amaze was better in every way IMHO. From the placement of the on/off button, volume control, virtual keyboard, etc...... the amaze physical features was so well place that the One S just lacks. On the One S, the on/off button was hard to press, and EVERYTIME you try to press the button, you would hit the volume button. The One S is also longer witch makes typing on the virtual keyboard hard to use. And not to mention all the bugs that needs to be worked out. Im having so much issues with this phone, they are sending me out a brand new One S next week. If someone works at a Tmobile store in Central/South Jersery that is will to trade a brand new Amaze for a Brand new One S, send me a PM.

Not to mention the lack of a memory card slot. The 100-image (and absurdly swift) burst mode is amazing, but not worth the trade off in my humble opinion.
And then there's the fact that it only has a VGA FFC. Amaze suits my needs a lot better despite the One S's two advantages (burst mode, and in benchmarking the one S its clear that the processor runs the One S twice as strong as the amaze, but the amaze still performs marvelously to begin with imho)

Is it worth it?

At Besy buy today, and see you get $50 off bringing it to $150, then he says trade in the evo 3d and get $100 more off. So im asking a stupid question and should know the answer but want to ask people that have the phone already. Would I be crazy to pass this phone up for $50?
That is a really good deal. If you liked your Evo 3D you will hopefully love this phone!

It's worth more at BB if you have the Buy Back program. They gave me $350 for my Epic Touch. If u dont have Buy Back I think that is accurate. Radio Shack gives even less. You can/should definitely get more for it elsewhere like Craigslist. But it is a major step up from the 3D in every aspect. Only thing it lacks is removable battery but the battery life so far has been awesome!
